Help. Any advice about feeling more confident about my looks?
Question by Terrence Mann: Help. Any advice about feeling more confident about my looks?
I have a lot going for me. I’m about to graduate from art school ( im majoring in audio production I would like to be a recording artist and record producer ), and also next yr I’m moving to L.A. to pursue careers in both acting and music. I also have a degree in Marketing Management in case my dreams of making it in show business don’t pan out. I’m a laid back, kind, well mannered, caring, compassionate, thoughtful, considerate, trustworthy, reliable, independent, friendly, some what shy, creative, and funny. When it comes to girls I just don’t have the same confidence I have with everything else. I have a lot of female friends, but as far me having a romantic relationship not so much. I guess I don’t really try to ask girls out b/c I feel that wouldn’t like me b/c they’d probably find me to be unattractive. I don’t find myself to be unattractive, but I was told that I was once by a girl I like when I was like 13 and that has really stuck with me; and I’ve never really gotten over it. I’m 23 now and I just want to feel better about my looks and have the same confidence I girls as I do with other phases of my life. I just want to feel better about myself and open up more. I think that feeling more secure about my looks would help me break out of my shell when it comes to girls in a romantic sense. Sorry the long details. I really would appreciate your advice if you all have any. Thanks and be blessed everyone!

Thanks for the long detail 😀
Simple answer, just take a risk
I was never too confident about my looks, i knew i had a reasonably… interesting personality and was regarded as a funny person and musical genius 😀
I never really though my gf liked me before i asked her out but i took a shot and asked, and surprise surprise she said yes. I was over the moon and was so glad that i put nerves aside and asked. Girls apparently go by personality not looks which was proven when my gf said yes, dont worry if people dont think you are amazingly good looking, good looking guys are in movies and they will never have them so thats their problem, if they dont like someone with a great personality with talents such as acting and music under their belt they they arent good enough for you. there will be someone who can see you for who you are and more, you just have to be patient!
Hope this helped or offered some sort of consolidation!
